Digging To Survive: I Can See Hints Chapter 13
Advertisement
[It is a very excellent machete. Feel free to use it. It will definitely be a good weapon. With this machete, you can easily break through the hard surface of a crypt creature.]
Klein slashed a few times into the air.
He gradually became familiar with the weight of the machete,
He had played with the machete a few months ago. It hadn't been long, three to four months.
Back then, he had signed up for a club on a whim and spent a small sum of money.
Now that he held the prop again, he couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity.
Back then, he was only at the beginner level and couldn't use it skillfully.
But for the current Klein, the skills he had learned regarding the use of the machete, as well as a bit of proficiency, were all extremely crucial.
[There's a strange item in the catacomb below. However, it's a troublesome Yellow Sand Octopus that's wandering around in the catacombs. Use a machete to chop it up. Be careful of its sand spitting ability. You should know the consequences of being caught by the monster.]
Klein checked again and the notification changed.
With that, he could dig without worry.
He sheathed his machete and took out his shovel.
He picked a spot.
He began digging!
He continued downwards.
The tunnel grew longer and longer.
Klein focused his attention and threw away the last shovel. As he fell, he put away his shovel.
!
This time, he landed on the high platform in the catacomb.
He took out the shovel and quickly scanned his surroundings, searching for the location of the Yellow Sand Octopus.
There were multiple spots in the thirteenth catacomb.
It was 14 to 15 meters in length.
The ceiling was slanted, and Klein's side was the high spot.

In addition, there were more high platforms.
They were not far from Klein, so he could jump over them.
Is that thing the xenogeneic?
Klein immediately saw a strange, fleshy thing on a stone pillar ten meters away from him.
It looked like a sarcoma. It was roughly oval in shape, and it could beat like a heart.
It was indescribably strange!
Where is the Yellow Sand Octopus hiding?
Klein searched carefully, but he didn't find it.
He jumped onto an adjacent earth pillar and searched again, but he still didn't find it.
[Since it is an octopus, could it be hiding in the sand?]
Klein was taken aback and immediately raised his vigilance.
There was an earth pillar under his feet!
At the same moment, the entire earth pillar quickly collapsed.
Thankfully, Klein had been warned beforehand and quickly adjusted to the ground.
Just as he landed, two children's thick arms swung at him.
Klein quickly retreated.
His arms weren't grabbed, but his ankles weren't spared.
Klein put away his machete and cut off both of its tentacles.
Just as the hint described, it wasn't difficult to deal with Yellow Sand Octopus.
The tentacles looked like tofu under the Excellent Machete.
'My strength has unknowingly increased by quite a bit.'
Klein guessed that it was due to the lizard's blood.
After digesting it during this period of time, his physique had improved in all aspects, including his reflexes.
Including the fact that his arm wasn't entangled just now, it was also because his reflexes were faster that he managed to escape.
The severed tentacles quickly retracted.
However, it also exposed the Yellow Sand Octopus's location.
This fellow had fallen under the sand layer of the earthen pillar. When it retracted its tentacles, it brought along dark green blood and two-colored holes.

Klein quickly rushed forward.
Poof!
Suddenly, a Yellow Sand Octopus's head popped out of the sand.
It opened its mouth and a ball of yellow sand protruded out.
Klein was already prepared. A mineral water bottle appeared in his left hand.
Before the yellow sand reached his eyes, he had already raised his hand to block it.
It was transparent and could effectively block the sand.
Of course, through the yellow sand, the visibility was still not high.
However, the yellow sand did not enter his eyes.
But it would not cause him to temporarily lose his vision.
Suddenly, another tentacle swung over!
The Yellow Sand Octopus probably thought that Klein had been hit.
It came at the right time.
Klein did not retreat but advanced instead.
He flashed past.
He raised his hand and slashed.
A slash landed on the octopus.
His hand slid down from the depths of the octopus.
Yellow Sand Octopus, dead!
[System notification: Soul+1]
Klein dug the Yellow Sand Octopus out of the soil.
Each tentacle was about four meters long.
This fellow's entire body was earthy yellow. It didn't have the unique smell of seafood, but had a earthy smell.
It had a soft appearance and bulging eyes.
It had a bunch of sharp teeth that were as long as a thumb.
Klein disintegrated the corpse.
[System notification: Yellow Sand Octopus Meat+12]
[System notification: Yellow Sand Octopus Blood+200ml]
[System notification: Yellow Sand Octopus Decompression+1]
The One-Eyed Lizard was large, but it didn't have much meat
The Yellow Sand Octopus was soft and rich, and it could be used as food.
Klein immediately checked its meat and blood.
The lizard blood from last time was a great tonic. He wondered if the Yellow Sand Octopus would have a similar effect.
[Yellow Sand Octopus: Rich in nutrients. The meat is tender and tastes good. Current Satiation Index: Three Stars. Overall score: 68]
It had a slightly higher score than the lizard meat.
[Yellow Sand Octopus Blood: Blood that doesn't have much nutrients. It has a certain degree of attraction to most crypt creatures.]
Klein put away the blood in disappointment.
It had other uses after all. He couldn't throw it away.
At the very least, there would be people who would be willing to take it if it was put on the market.
The blood of the Yellow Sand Octopus could be used as a water supplement.
Next, it was time to look at that xenogeneic
Klein walked towards the xenogeneic.
The stone pillar wasn't tall, only about a meter.
Looking at it up close, its appearance was even uglier.

Now why did Hickory go and punch that Angel? Sure it spooked him, popping up right there at lunch, and yet, it wasn't fear that balled his hand into a fist - Cause wouldn't you? Wouldn't anyone - with a sick Ma at home, Da long dead, buried, all them prayers piling up on bruised knees, unanswered? Hickory was angry, all right. He was fierce, now - cause that Angel didn't show up to give no help, that Angel came by asking for it - with all that power just plain to see, the power to fix the world and all that ails it! And now look what poor Hickory has to do - to save the world? Now how is he supposed to do that when its taking near everything he's got - just to keep them chickens safe, Ma fed, and himself out of trouble - All he wanted was maybe just a dance with May, maybe a bit more, to hold her close? That she's sweet, now, a voice like an angel, but now she's over there lookin at him like he's more than a man. And that's not to say Hickory is bad, not all the time, not ever on purpose - just there are things a man has to - That drinking and fighting ain't wrong just as long as the chores are done proper first, that those parts of life that make it worth living ain't no sin, that loving a lady is proper and Hickory just has so much love to give! And May is special, right, sweet and soft, now she's sophisticated. That she wears her passion like a pearl necklace? That certainly Hickory would notice, naturally - that she's already spoken for, perhaps taken? That ever since Hickory came back, that all she can think about is swallowing - those strange feelings, because it wouldn't do, would it? For a Lady? But certainly she can worship him and still be seen with Weston Covanger? Because Weston needs May, that what happens in the Study is only half the battle, the Men's Business, and he's far too proud to settle for half of anything. That if he wants to move up the ranks of his family, to be more than a Covanger, to become the Covanger? He's going to need a woman in the Kitchen as well - he's going to need May. And if that seems a bit old fashioned? A bit too much like the Wild West? Well the West is starting to get wild again now that everyone starts to Drink. A different take on LitRPG where answers aren't given - they must be earned, discovered and fought for, one at a time. An orator style, a long read, filled with magic buildings, crafting, alchemy, but most of all - This is a story about the human spirit. About understanding what defines a person, their morals, their beliefs, and also faith when everything they understand becomes challenged - changed. So do they. People can change. They will. Just not always for the better, not always - sometimes. Sometimes that's enough. Sometimes that's even everything.
